Which of these would be best for investigating how moving waves cause changes to land?

Question

A.
observing the shape of the land in different places along the ocean shore
B.
modeling the way that waves move in a bathtub or a swimming pool
C.
observing the shape of the banks of a fast moving river
D.
building a model of a hill made from dirt and slowly pouring water over it

Answer 1

The best option for investigating how moving waves cause changes to land would be:

D. building a model of a hill made from dirt and slowly pouring water over it.

This option allows for direct observation of how water (representing waves) interacts with land (the hill) and causes erosion or changes in shape over time. It provides a controlled environment to observe the effects of moving water on the landform.
